Underwater, it features natural rock formations, scattered small stones, and artificial coral structures, providing diverse habitats. Remnants of old fishing gear are also present, reflecting its history as an active fishing ground.

The marine life here is rich and varied, encompassing both vibrant reef fish and economically significant species. Divers can commonly spot barracuda, eagle rays, groupers, snappers, mackerels, as well as colorful butterflyfish and angelfish, thriving amongst the corals.
